Hello there... I have made some updates to the updates that Dave H had made to the action_buildiso.py. Here is the list of my updates: (P.S. I am new to python so if my coding sucks, please bear with me) 1. reordered the build iso menu so that systems are first. 2. Did not understand why we rely on DHCP when you have a "System". So I have added the networking information to the kernel line for systems, thus eliminating the need for DHCP. (This is what I needed in the boot iso). 3. Update the copy initrd and kernel so that only the initrd and kernel for the systems listed are copied. (did not see any need to have a huge boot iso, if you have many distros, and wanted to keep it as small as possible.) 4. The boot menu will only list systems if --system is given on the cmdline. By default bootiso will build the boot menu for all profiles list in cobbler. Cheers, joe Joseph Boyer Jr Enterprise Technology Services Liquidnet Holdings, Inc.
